In life we come across many people. Some will hate us while others will adore us. The ones who hate can be referred to as enemies and the ones who show adoration will be called friends. In truth, there are three types of friends. They are the acquaintances people make in school, the friends people lose as they grow, and best friends who may stray, but never too far away.

First of all, there are those friends that are only seen in school.
Seeing them on the street is like they are not even there. People may have known them throughout their whole school career, but have never talked to them outside of school. These school acquaintances are nice people to talk to, but there is never an effort to do anything more than that. These friends are good because there are never any chances to take with them. One just talks to them and then they go on their merry way. These school acquaintances are the people who are talked to about different hobbies and class studies.
School acquaintances are the people that one will not see again until the school ten year reunion.

Second, there are former friends. These are the ones that grew up in ones neighborhood and moved away. These are the friends who will bring back memories that people thought were forgotten. They might be embarrassed at first about seeing their former friend, but as soon as conversation starts, they can talk forever. These friends usually end up married with kids. Some people fall deeply in love with a former friend. Sometimes the former friend will reject them, but in the end they still remain friends. The last type of friend is the best friend. The best friend is the friend we tell all. Best friends are always together. People may often mistake best friends for relatives. These friends can talk to each other about anything. Best friends always want to share things or do things at the same time. Sometimes best friends may step out of their boundaries and do or say something the other may not agree on, but nothing will tear them apart. Best friends may not talk or communicate for a while but they will always be best friends. We meet people every day as we talk to them we may begin to think of them as acquaintances, former friends, or best friends. We may think of them as former friends but communicate with them like best friends. We can’t treat everyone as a friend because some people may not think of us that way, but we can try.
